WE have long studied the hi

WE have long studied the history
of governments, the remote causes
that give rise to the formation of
constitutions, and the gradual devel
opments that demand changes in
policies, the effect of progress, inter
nal improvement, and taxation on
civilization. We have studied the
science of government, what the
world calls politics, and the indu
ence of parties and party organlza
ton, and we want to thus publically
confess our utter astonishment at
the abominable stuff advocated by
some political party leaders. John
Sherman and other republicans have
been making tour ofthe South. The
reasons for such tour are obvious.
The most careless and stupid OBJ
server can easily interpret all their
prophecies. Sherman and all the
others have returned to the republi-
can part of our nation, and are now
leaving behind them wherever they
go a luminous light that flashes on
the pages of political history yet to
be written. They have Informed the
republicans everywhere, that the
solid South is in state of political
dissatisfaction, and that the southern
voters will never again vote with the
democratic party. The reasons for
this as alleged are, that democracy
is Numerically, and diabollcahy,
opposedto every species of industry,
progress and civilization. These
secretly appointed political survey
ors have not performed their task
well, and therefore deceived, as they
are purposely disseminating malic
ious salsehoods, to inspire and
strengthen their own party and per-
chance seduce the ignorant demo
Gratis among them. We do not like
to say that men lie straight out, but
there is evidently something wrong.
The same men have never allowed
an occasion to pass without remark
ing the great prosperity of the South.
And yet they claim that the repubh-
can party inaugurated the causes OF
this prosperity, and that it is in
spite of democracy

EVERY paper in the State Of al

EVERY paper in the State of any
pretentlons is industriously pushing
the mineral and timber enterprises
within her borders. Every issue
gives accounts in the most glowing
terms of new, vast, rich mines dis
covered, of the daily out put of those
in operation, and of the probable
output of the new ones when put IN
operation. But never word do
many of these papers ever say about
the agricultural resources of the
same country. We cheerfully ad
init that the uplands of this state
are not so rich and fertile as those
along the Wabash river, not so rich
as the average lands in many places
that we might mention. But we do
contend that good living can be
made, and property accumulated by
farming in the uplands of this State.
Because so many men do not make
living at farming is no argument
that it cannot be done. Thousands
Of what the world calls industrious
men do not make a living at any
thing. Mechanics do not make a
living, machinists, carpenters, dc
not make living. Shall all these
things be denounced and regarded
with contempt because some men dc
not make living at them? One
merchant out of hundred makes
money, four make living, and nine
ty-fve fail, and yet it is considered a
good, remuneratlvc avocation. Farm
ing, to be successful is like every
thing else, it requires attention to
details, and close application to the
whole work. And herein lies the
difficulty, herein lies the secret oil
success.

ears, they are denominated democra.
cy. The tendency ofthis evil, is TO
80 define that principle OF govern
ment called democracy, as TO make
it a sort Of separate and distinct in
stitutlon: separate from morality,
probity, and honesty, relieved of all
the elements that tend toward the
elevation, of human character and the
alienation Of human suffering. And
when this is done, the next step is
that a politician can not be an hon
est man, truthful man, a religious
man. Politics is a synonym fol
thievery, rascallty, bribery, trickery
and he who is not well up in all these
is expected to be soon when he en-
tiers politics. And the idea of a pol
itician being a religious man is ut
terly out Of the question. Now, We
would not unite the state and the
church in any sense but would be
glad to have honest, upright, relig
ious men IN all the offices. We
would be glad to see the time wher
the political leaders will have broad
err views of the science of govern
] ment.

ELECTIONS disturb all countries

THE recent letter of Jefferson Da.
Wis, ex-President OF the Confederacy
reviewing and criticizing Gen. r. E.
Lee, written By Lord Wellesley, is
attracting wide attention. 1t is
calling up the recollections of those
that were in the heat of the contest,
it Is string up the malice of those
that were on the other side, of some
of them at least. But while this is
true it is patent that the veteran
conquered Chief desires that the
purposes of history be not subverted
to the propagation Of falsehood. He
does not detract anything from the
lustre and glory of Gen. Lees rec
ord. He is merely striving to have
historical facts placed on record in
such truthful manner that they
may be relied upon.
